Golden Brown : Whisker Fatigue : Aquarium Drunkard
Colorado guitarist and multi-instrumentalist Stefan Beck gets a lot of love around these parts as one-third of Mountain Time motorik outfit Prairiewolf. Fortunately it hasn't been getting in the way of the solo work he puts out under his Golden Brown moniker. The new album Whisker Fatigue practices a rare form of psychedelic austerity, whipping up a heady atmosphere through subtraction. Some might call it ambient, but it is really what happens to acid rock when it is reduced to its essential elements.
Listen: Deep Trees - "Extraordinary" -- Obscure Sound
A memorable pop sound with a radiating sense of adoration, “Extraordinary” comes via Deep Trees, the project of songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Summer Redko. “Look up and see all the stars align,” Redko’s vocals let out amidst glistening synths and bouncy bass, absorbing in a synth-fronted initial foray — until the rock-edged “try to run … try to hide” hookiness. “Extraordinary” consumes in its dynamic guitar and synth interplay, also delighting in its melodic vocal entrancement — all combining for a heartfelt and infectious result. The track is described as “about the headrush of meeting someone unforgettable — when your emotional
Listen: Luke Sweeney - "Subsidize Our Rent" -- Obscure Sound
Another memorable track from Luke Sweeney, “Subsidize Our Rent” pairs an playful rock pulse with lyrical insight on true success — playing as a tribute to the working class, celebrating small moments of happiness and connection through music and shared experience. “It’s a little lonely here at the top,” Sweeney’s vocals ring out, referencing the soulless existence of billionaire sycophants, while clanging keys and bluesy guitar touches bolster into the “big time events” rock-friendly hook. “Subsidize Our Rent” is another songwriting success from Sweeney, impressing on past tracks like “Probably Me” and his gorgeous album Rishi. — This and other
Listen: Late Cambrian - "28 Years Later" -- Obscure Sound
A hooky rock sound shines on “28 Years Later,” a new single from Late Cambrian. Lushly inviting guitar pulses and dreamily reflective vocals — “hope I’m dreaming instead” — ascend into a punchy bridge and soaring chorus. A particularly catching sequence enamors in the “life is not what it seems” arrival, leading into delectably twanging guitar lines; an enjoyable rock immediacy flows throughout. Late Cambrian thoroughly succeed with their first track of the year, and we’re excited for the next one. — This and other tracks featured this month can be streamed on the updating Obscure Sound’s ‘Emerging Singles’ Spotify
Listen: The Foo Birds - "Just Need To Start" -- Obscure Sound
A soulful gem from UK-based quintet The Foo Birds, “Just Need To Start” struts a magnetic production that melds tender guitars, vibe-y synths, and funky bass traversals. Leading the melodic charge is Kate Lister’s enthralling vocals, moving seamlessly from the “keep falling, again and again” melancholy into the ensuing spirited soul-pop charm — “hope when you need it.” With a production reminding fondly of a cross between The Style Council and Men I Trust, “Just Need To Start” is a clear winner from The Foo Birds. — This and other tracks featured this month can be streamed on the updating
New Album: Emma Falk Dennis - 'The Dust Up of the Century'
Stirring in its range of twangy guitars, harmonious vocals, and string-laden balladry within a folk/rock intertwining, The Dust Up of the Century is the enamoring debut album from Emma Falk Dennis, an artist based in Southern California, and originally from Derbyshire, England. Production from David J (Bauhaus/ Love and Rockets) infuses Dennis’ fantastic songwriting within a warming, atmospheric glow. Amongst the numerous highlights, “Neon” ascends quickly from sporadic strings, piano, and guitars into a rollicking energy — taking off especially upon the “marks I made” vocal ruminations, where the instrumentation comes together with a breezily emotive passion. Dennis’ suave vocals
Listen: RIMENY - "Matt" -- Obscure Sound
A vibe-y pop success from RIMENY, “Matt” invokes an ’80s spirit with its punchy guitars, clanging piano, and bass-y ruminations — propelled further by magnetic, melodic vocal immersion. “A love song, for best friends,” RIMENY describes the track. “Matt used to pick me up in an old, red Volkswagen Golf. That car defined him for an era of our relationship, and we spent a lot of time growing up in it.: “Talk about the girls you know, that we wanna get to know better,” the vocals reminisce on youthful rides home, traversing into hooky melding of bouncy piano and ardent
